Recenzje

This book deftly explains how domestic politics, economic circumstances, and national security concerns have shaped what the United States has done-and not done-in the face of multiple refugee crises in the two decades after the end of the Cold War. With this masterful and elegant account, the first history to untangle post-Cold War U.S. refugee policies, Garcia demonstrates again why she is one of our most important scholars of immigration and refugees.
